Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Bedtime for chickens in the group Garden Hens"Thanks for the confirmation and that all seems to fit with what we were seeing.
Unfortunately I've been away on business a bit lately and from what I hear now the pecking order is apparently starting to change. The formerly timid Black Rock is…"
Karin replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Bedtime for chickens in the group Garden Hens"Chickens do sometimes play 'follow my leader', probably because they think they might be missing something. It's possible they all felt the urge to look around the nest box in preparation for when they start nesting. However, chickens…"
Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Bedtime for chickens in the group Garden Hens"As there have been no replies I can only assume that my first assumption was correct - they just felt like a nap! - but I have to recognise that there must also be some element of the nervous new "parent" getting worked up.

Bedtime for chickens
I should say right at the start that we are new to keeping chickens and have only had our 3 for a few days but we have been enjoying the learning process immensely!However there is one question that came up and we haven't been able to easily answer - why did all our chickens decided to head back into the coop for a mid-afternoon "nap"?

Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to miriam abbott's discussion Leeks -Seeds or young plants"I can recommend the plastic greenhouse idea - I bought one at my local pound shop (for £10) and it's proved very useful because I have only limited sunny window space in my house/garage. I'm just starting to see some action now from…"

Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Wheelbarrow flat tyre"Okay, I give up on this puncture repair nonsense. Once I finally got it properly patched and it was looking good for holding the pressure... the tube and tyre were such hard work that I ended up accidentally poking another hole in the inner tube!…"
Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Wheelbarrow flat tyre"You're right of course, I'll give the puncture repair kit one last go before I resort to the emergency tyre repair stuff. I have the sneaking suspicion that the inner tube is fine and I'm just being too heavy handed when fitting…"
Biggreenfingers replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Wheelbarrow flat tyre"I bought one of the cheapo wheelbarrows out of B&Q and had a puncture late last year. I got out the puncture repair kit found the puncture and fixed it and it has been as good as new. Saved me getting a new wheel/wheel barrow. I would persevere…"
Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Wheelbarrow flat tyre"Thanks for the latest suggestions for this - I may end up getting a second wheelbarrow anyway if I can find one that cheap!

Debbie replied to Small Plot, Big Ideas's discussion Wheelbarrow flat tyre"and if that doesn't work I got a brand new wheelbarrow from my local B&Q last year for £15. It had been outside in the winter so was a little rusty looking. Actually it was better that way as it didn't look too new on the…"
Small Plot, Big Ideas replied to VP's discussion Pimp your blog! in the group UK Veg Bloggers"Hi all!
I've become more interested lately in growing vegetables so this year I decided to devote a little more of my normal suburban garden in North East England to veg growing. Having made that decision I needed something to keep me occupied…"
